Red Kite Charity Downwinder 2014 is on for Sunday 23rd November subject to wind and approvals to register please visit.http://www.waksa.org.au/kitesurfing-events/downwinder/event/21-redkite-charity-downwinder
Hey everyone,
The long range forecast is looking promising for Redkite this Sunday!! Hopefully we see a few more green arrows added over the next couple of days.
Regardless of wind the prizes for whoever raises the most money for Redkite are still on offer! This includes;
1st Prize - L2L ticket!!!
2nd Prize - Kitestock 2015 ticket
3rd Prize - TBC
Red Bull are confirmed and will be down playing tunes and supplying refreshments plus we have an after party booked in at the Local Shack in Scarborough afterwards. A DJ (Melotyx) will be playing some tunes and it's looking likely that this might combine with the State Wave Titles after party so it should be a cracking afternoon of swapping kiting stories!!
So sign up to guarantee your spot on the bus and support this great charity in Redkite. Here's hoping for some wind and a great event!http://www.waksa.org.au/kitesurfing-events/downwinder/event/21-redkite-charity-downwinder
Great work so far there is over $3600 raised but there are a few days to go so keep at it!!
Registrations are from 11am with the bus leaving at 1pm.
Apologies for the post on the general forum, pfd's and flares are only recommended as everybody should be kiting within 400m of shore for this event.
Wind is looking sweeeet for the Redkite downwinder tomorrow!!
Over $7000 raised so far which is amazing and Redkite will be stoked. There is only one day to go so keep the donations rolling in.
There is still room on the bus so it doesn't matter if you haven't registered for fundraising. Register on the WAKSA website, pay $100 (all money going to Redkite) and join in on the day.
Ian Young is back from his epic adventure up the coast and has kindly offered to present the prizes to the fundraising winners. He will also be about at the Local Shack for the afterparty so get down to Scarbs for a beer and a yarn.
Over $8000 now with only a few hours left to fundraise!! Awesome effort everyone.
Even if you haven't been fundraising and still keen to participate in the downwinder today, come down to Brighton and make a $100 donation to Redkite and jump on the bus.
The wind is already up, there's a few white caps already, so it should be a great downwinder. First in best dressed to get the remaining spots on the bus.
Don't forget after party at the Local Shack from 5/6pm tonight!!
